Cabaye is an outrageous signing for Palace.

Shame they have a fool managing them though, they'll still be bottom half.

Wijnaldum looks like it'll be sorted today and Mitrovic tomorrow. Good start to the transfer window - still need 3-4 more of similar quality, though.

Must admit SCHTEVE has really, really impressed me so far.


Same. Speaks really confidently and Ian Cathro has also impressed.

Apparently he's a master of manipulation though according to the 'Boro press. So we'll wait and see.

I think I could do a better job than Williamson tbh.

Then they'd just make gentleman's agreements with players to move after the transfer ban is over.

It's impossible to police.

Wijnaldum has denied being interested in a move here, so looks like that might be off the table too.

Things are different to a few years ago when we actually looked like we could move forward - players will be put off moving here now as we've been horrendously mismanaged since around 2011.

Would anyone else be completely against John Cena winning wrestler of the year?

Constantly puts on great matches literally every week.

And Edwards knows nothing - the only journalist with even a slight bit of knowledge is Simon Bird and he is as Kinnear said. A cunt.

and even he said Austin was a done deal about 23 years ago.

Reports coming out today saying Marsielle won't sell N'Koulou or Thauvin this summer, so maybe.

Apparently we're signing Wijnaldum today, be a good signing if true.

Probably means Sissoko is off, heard they're very similar in style?

Not even that, I just don't know if I want to prioritise spending money on something when they're actively trying to not entertain - which is my primary motivation for going.

I'll still watch it in the pub or something.

Never said Santon was a great defender - not MYM - just they're better than what we have - which is utter shite.

Pardew is a terrible manager, he's useful at playing 4-4-2 and getting the best out of average players - give him good players and he hasn't got a clue though. He done well with Ba and Cabaye despite his best attempts (playing Ba left wing, Cabaye behind the strikers)

And yeah, I seen the email communication. Unsure why they can't just announce it like a normal club and try and garner some momentum

Leave for America for 'team building' in a week isn't it?

Need CB, LB, DM, W and 2xST and maybe plus backup players by then

Not. A. Chance.

Smalling is better than Jones - if you sign Ramos he'll not get a look in.

There's also no confirmation on the official site of our assistant manager never mind our coaching staff.

Disgracefully ran, without a care in the world for our fans.

Not glory seeking - wouldn't have chosen Newcastle as the team I support if I was a glory seeker.

Just don't want to spend a hell of a lot of money when the board aren't trying to entertain me.

They don't have the stadiums required and I doubt they have the infrastructure.

There's requirements on stadium capacity and facilities, and there's requirements on infrastructure and things like available hotel beds, never heard anything about any "villages". Event areas can be built in a fortnight.

One of the big arguments for the US bid was that it wouldn't require any new infrastructure to be built, there's already something like 90 different stadiums in the US that are up to standards, and major US cities won't have any issues with hotel beds, airport access and whatnot.


England/Britain definitely has the infrastructure, they just held the Olympics.

Old Trafford, Emirates, Stamford Bridge, St James's Park, Etihad, Anfield, Olympic Stadium Stadium of Light, Millennium Stadium, Twickenham, Hampden, Ibrox and Parkhead I'd say are enough stadiums too.

Linked with Van Ginkel on loan again, pointless loaning players as we'll never stump up the funds to buy them afterwards if they play well.

For some reason Newcastle seem to take ages to confirm these things. Colback and Janmaat's unveiling pics were leaked days before they were confirmed. Edit - More likely that they'll all be announced at once.

Also enlighten me why the 'shit coaching staff' only applies to certain players? You always hear about certain players having to 'endure' coaching staff but not others. For example no one is saying Williamson will be world class with better coaches next year.


He might well be better tbf, I highly doubt it though. I'd be willing to give him a chance but unfortunately it would mean not buying better players that we drastically need. But the fact that even Carver said he was beyond coaching speaks volumes.

Pre-season starts tomorrow, no coaching staff in yet.

What a joke.

Starting to think we may have to sell before we buy.
